Couldn't load pickup availability
The Renogy Curved Z Bracket Set of 4 is an aluminum-alloy mounting kit designed to secure rigid solar panels to curved surfaces such as Airstream trailers, RVs, boats, and yachts. Each set supports one rigid solar panel rated up to 100W; two sets are required for panels in the 150–200W range. These brackets are not recommended for any single rigid panel exceeding 200W.
Built for Surfaces That Aren't Flat
Flat Z brackets lose contact and clamping force the moment a roof curves. The Renogy Curved Z Bracket set is shaped to follow that curve, keeping all four mounting points in solid contact with the surface. That consistent contact distributes panel load evenly and reduces the stress concentrations that can loosen fasteners over time on a moving vehicle or vessel.
Aluminum Construction Resists Corrosion
The brackets are made from aluminum-alloy, which does not rust and holds up to the salt air, rain, and UV exposure common in marine and RV environments. Aluminum's light weight also keeps the overall mounting assembly from adding meaningful mass to a rooftop installation where every pound matters for payload and fuel economy.
Hardware Included, Ready to Install
The set ships pre-assembled with bolts and washers already in place, and the box includes the full complement of fasteners needed for a complete installation: M6 hex cap bolts, split lock washers, flat washers, hexagonal nuts, and self-drilling cap screws with plastic retaining rings. No separate hardware run is required for a standard installation on a compatible surface.

Who This Is For and Isn't
These curved Z brackets suit overlanders, RV owners, and boaters who need to mount a rigid solar panel on a rounded or irregular roof surface where flat brackets would not seat properly. One set handles panels up to 100W; two sets handle panels in the 150–200W range.
These brackets are not recommended for any single rigid panel exceeding 200W, and they are not designed for flexible or semi-flexible solar panels. They are not intended for flat roof surfaces where standard flat Z brackets would be the appropriate choice.
Common Questions
Will these brackets work on a flat roof?
The Renogy Curved Z Brackets are specifically shaped for curved or irregular surfaces such as rounded RV and Airstream roofs. For flat mounting surfaces, a standard flat Z bracket set is the more appropriate choice; the curved geometry of these brackets is designed to maintain contact where a flat bracket would rock or gap.
How many sets do I need for my solar panel?
One set of four Renogy Curved Z Brackets supports a single rigid solar panel rated at 100W or less. For a single rigid panel in the 150–200W range, two sets are required. These brackets are not recommended for any single rigid panel exceeding 200W.
Do these brackets work with flexible solar panels?
Renogy recommends the Curved Z Bracket set for rigid solar panels only. Flexible and semi-flexible panels have different mounting requirements and are not the intended application for this bracket set.
What hardware is included in the set?
Each Renogy Curved Z Bracket Set of 4 includes four pairs of curved brackets, 12 M6-16 Hex Cap Bolts, 4 M6 Split Lock Washers, 16 M6 Flat Washers, 12 M6 Hexagonal Nuts, and 16 #10 × 1¼ Self-Drilling Cap Screws with Plastic Retaining Rings. The full fastener kit covers a standard installation with no additional hardware required.
Can these be used on a boat or trailer?
Yes. The Renogy Curved Z Brackets are designed for use on RVs, Airstreams, trailers, boats, and yachts. The aluminum-alloy construction resists corrosion from salt air and moisture, making the brackets suitable for marine environments as well as overland applications.
